If you own a successful WordPress blog you know that managing all the comments you receive every day can be quite some work. Today I read about a desktop application that can make your life easier. The application is called WP-Comment-Notifier. The application displays an icon in your system tray to let you know if you have new comments and allows you to manage/reply/edit your comments directly from your desktop.
I have you have a home network like myself you will probably create network shares from time to time to manage all your data. Although this can be done within Windows itself this isn’t always as easy as it should be. I, for instance, had some problems with Windows Vista and remembering passwords for Samba share on a NAS (Synology DS-207+) after a reboot. Next to that, creating permanent shares may clutter your My Computer folder if you have a lot of them. Having a lot of active shares will also cause for extra bandwidth and resource usage because Windows monitors these active shares.
I have been using MP3Gain for years now to adjust the volume of my MP3 collection. I often burn random selections of tracks to a CD for playback in the car and it’s really annoying if you have to change the volume with every song. With MP3Gain you can analyse and adjust the volume of MP3 files to the same level. The changes MP3Gain makes are completely lossless. There is no quality lost in the change because the program adjusts the mp3 file directly, without decoding and re-encoding.
For quite some time now widgets have been growing in popularity and are cluttering our desktops. I think widgets can indeed make your life easier and I have been using widgets since Vista was released. Widgets I have been using since that day are notes, RSS news and stock index. At that time I was using the Vista Sidebar widgets but I was unsatisfied with the often bloated and poorly designed widgets available in the Windows Live Gallery. I needed something that I could fully customize to my own needs.
After a quest around the internet I stumbled upon Rainmeter, which was an abandoned project at that time. Rainmeter is a Windows customization application capable of showing widgets (Rainmeter calls them applets) on your desktop.
I’m a great fan of a Windows application called ReNamer. The name of the application pretty much says it all. This nifty tool can batch rename files and folders. ReNamer offers various standard renaming procedures, including prefixes, suffixes, replacements, case changes, as well as removing contents of brackets, adding number sequences, changing file extensions, etc..
